Beach house vacation rentals in Positano

Monica’s place in Sorrento was a great location. Beautiful views from the piazza, great restaurants and shopping close by, beaches and marina were a short walk away. Monica’s partnership with the hotel was convenient for check-in. She handled our transportation reservation from the train station and to our next destination. If we were to come back to stay in Sorrento we would definitely have Monica’s place on the short list!

Maria's condo in Positano is exactly as described and pictured. Our group of 4 spent two nights and all said how much we would love to live there indefinitely. It's quite the hike down and back from the beach (but pretty much every Airbnb or hotel accommodation is). The only reason for 4 stars is that Maria was still cleaning the unit when we arrived at 3pm check in until 430-- for which she was incredibly apologetic. We were grateful the property is so well taken care of. Definitely don't forget to bring a swim cap down to the pool with you-- they won't let you get in the water without one! (Even if you have your hair up and don't plan to go under).

Our stay at this lovely home was excellent. The location was as described and the views from the home are breathtaking. Most notably, our hosts were responsive, timely, and truly lovely. Parking is easily accessible with an elevator to take you up to the main property. The gardens, grounds, and inside of the home are impeccably maintained.

Extremely clean and beautiful apartment. Very responsive host. The view was spectacular and the patio was very large and spacious. It’s very good for younger people that like to do a lot of walking and hiking. It’s very difficult to get in town especially when you have only a couple of days to explore the city. I had my mom and aunt with me and I would have preferred a hotel by the center of town. We spent a lot of money for taxi . Other than that the place and the host are wonderful and match the description on the listing .

Wonderful! We had the entire place to ourselves, the views are amazing! Loved and would definitely stay there again.

We ended up booking our stay last minute and paid a little more than we budgeted because the other locations did not look very nice including hotels. We are SO glad we chose this location and paid a little more. Her apartment was VERY clean, spacious, smelled so nice and overall exceeded expectations. She provided many towels for use, as some places only provide one or two. There was a washer and dryer for use, I do suggest air drying a few days in advance outside as the dryer is not same power as the US. You can walk down steps or walk the narrow road for about 20 minutes to get to the bottom. We are 35-40 years old so this did not bother us as the views were spectacular. We preferred the roads for walking because the stairs could be brutal!! You can also get a ticket from the convience stores by Grottinos restaurant (amazing) for the bus. However, the bus can take as much time to arrive as simply walking. Overall, Rosita was the best decision we made for our stay!!

This place was perfection! From the moment we arrived we were greeted with a warm welcome and a tour of this incredible place. The pool and outdoor spaces plus the balcony with its incredible views were a huge hit! The family and their dog are so lovely and we couldn't say a single bad word about our stay here. Great location, big and spacious rooms, plenty of outdoor space and the pool was so good! If you are staying in or around Praiano then I wouldn't look anywhere else. It is even more stunning in real life. We can't wait to come back!

If you are looking for a post card view of Positano and the coastline, this is the place to stay. The property was beautiful and the pool was an added bonus. Air conditioning worked fine for us. Domenico was kind enough to help meet us and assist with our luggage. He even reserved a taxi for our Capri tour and recommend the La Strada restaurant. The food, service and close proximity were all great. One note to keep in mind is the number of steps to get to the property. It can be a bit of challenge for some. Otherwise, we had a memorable stay.

Barbara’s place was amazing!!!! It’s a beautiful home with gorgeous views, renovated appliances, and it was very accessible for Positano. It was right off the road and near a bus stop which was fabulous for this town because we did not have to climb a bunch of steps to get there. Barbara was also very very helpful and responsive. She laid out the bus schedule so clearly, gave specific directions for us when we were out and about, gave awesome restaurant and beach club recommendations, and even brought us some milk when we arrived since all the grocery stores were closed. We had the best time staying here and would highly recommend it!

We had a mother-daughter trip staying at Casa Bijou. The highlights were the lovely long terraces of the house with amazing views of Positano and the ocean, comfy bed, nice and helpful owners! We had a fantastic time and got lots of exercise on the famous positano stairs.

Lovely apartment. It’s very central. Steps to apartment but it’s 2 minutes from central square. Steps are everywhere in capri and it’s the price you pay for the excellent view from balcony. Mario was a great host. Any issues and he was sorting it it out in seconds. Highly recommend apartment

This place is located right in the middle of Positano. Close to everything. Very helpful and responsive host. Nicely furnished and spacious inside. Great balcony. We stayed for our honeymoon and loved it!

We loved staying at Villa Laura from 6/12/25-6/17/25. The hosts Renado and Antionette were wonderful. Renado came to greet us outside the street and helped bring our luggage to the villa. He gave a tour of his gorgeous home, perched up in the beautiful village of Montepertuso. The views were fabulous, the home was sparkling clean with very well equipped kitchen, linens, towels and nice, beautiful clean home. He gave us a bottle of their family run and owned wine which was such as sweet gesture. The fridge had four bottles of cold water that was thoughtfully kept. The hosts were both always available to answer any questions. The breakfast every morning was fresh and farm to table and was delicious. They made a custom Father’s Day cake to celebrate along with delicious breakfast on Father’s day sunday. Incidentally, the hosts also own the restaurant La Tagliata, which is well known in the area, and we were able to get reservations! Highly recommend this gorgeous place and people!

This was our second time renting an airbnb in Positano. It was absolute perfection. We knew ahead of time what to expect with the steep climbing, and we asked our host to arrange for porters for our luggage. She was very accommodating and it was a breeze with arrival and departure. Do yourself a favor and REQUEST PORTERS FOR LUGGAGE! The property is very close to local markets, however we did not want to lug heavy water and we made arrangements ahead of time to have our host provide bottles of water, and they were waiting for us. Communication was excellent and the property is exactly like the photos. The garden is beautiful with kumquat and lemon trees. Having a washing machine with drying rack in the sun made it easier for us to pack light. We highly recommend this listing.

Nicola was very proactive even before we arrived. We were a group of 6 and he worked very hard to arrange transportation for us to Amalfi as the buses were sometimes full. Worked to get us the most reasonable price as well. The view is spectacular and the kitchen beautifully appointed. Very comfortable and fun! Thank you Nicola!!!

We had the best time staying at Casa Francesca. It’s just far enough from the center of Positano to feel peaceful and quiet, but still close enough to walk to all the restaurants, shops, and the main beach in ten minutes. The absolute best part? The private beach. While the main beaches in Positano were packed, we had this beautiful little spot all to ourselves—complete with beach chairs and kayaks. It was a dream! The Airbnb itself was so cute, with little garden areas and amazing views from the windows and terrace. The kitchen even had welcome snacks, drinks, and a Nespresso machine, which was such a nice touch. Our hosts were so kind and welcoming! They were also quick to respond and helpful when we had questions. We would recommend this Airbnb to anyone staying in Positano!

Thank you to Michela and Giancarlo for the most wonderful 10 day trip! Giancarlo was very flexible when our flight got cancelled. The property is beautiful and is a perfect base to explore the Amalfi Coast. It has 2 private areas to sunbathe with sun beds/umbrellas. It is a short walk to the nearest beach and only 10/15 minutes walk into Maiori, where you can get a water ferry or bus to anywhere required. Would highly recommend staying here - Wonderful host, beautiful surroundings, amazing property and overall excellent trip! Thank you, Dan

We had the most amazing time on our honeymoon staying here! Carlo met us promptly upon arrival, walked us to the house and gave us tips for getting around Positano. The terrace was amazing and offered spectacular views. This side of Positano was less crowded and we were happy to not be in the craziness of the main beach and port. It was a quick walk to literally everything. We hope to come back, and highly recommend!

One of the most beautiful places to stay with views you cannot get everywhere! Walter and Jeane were fabulous hosts and very helpful with anything we needed! They personally greeted us, told us about the home, answered all our questions and then allowed us to enjoy all Atrani and Amalfi had to offer! The home is set up with 2 separate bedroom spaces which is very nice if traveling with another couple! The outdoor area is stunningly beautiful with tables and chairs. They are not kidding about the stairs up or the walk from Amalfi- but it’s worth it! Great little square in Atrani with restaurants, small grocery store with fresh fruit. Atrani beach is at the bottom of the hill which has limited service. We found Lido Ravello and enjoyed it tremendously! Book this beautiful home if you want something a little off the beaten path!

We had an amazing 4 nights in this beautiful location, Melania’s place is situated in an idyllic area. The apartment was lovely and had everything we needed. Melania gave us lots of suggestions of places to visit and where to eat and was very helpful. We would love to return again sometime in the future. This place is a real gem!

We had a wonderful stay at Giuseppina’s place! Her, her son Alessandro, and her husband Francesco were all incredibly kind and responsive throughout our stay. They assisted us in booking luggage porters and even shared a 10% discount at their local boutique, Rino (highly recommended if you’re looking for handmade clothing). The walk to and from the home is quite challenging. It’s a steep incline, even for very athletic individuals. While we managed to make it, it was quite exhausting at times. Nevertheless, these aspects of the stay were all part of the experience. Overall, I highly recommend this listing!

Roberto was an amazing host. We got a puncture in our tyre and he helped us out with getting to and from local tyre place etc. Above and beyond just an air bnb host! Thank you so so much. Couldn’t have been more efficient. Also highly recommend visiting his restaurant very tasty. Lovely views - however the stairs up to the apartment You want small bags - it’s a long way. Apartment comfortable and clean.

This was without a doubt the most beautiful place I have ever been. I did not believe the place would be as amazing as the photos and it was even better! The location was in a super convenient location for the port. It was also very easy to walk to the port to catch a taxi and go to other areas on the island. The host was very responsive and communicated well. We will certainly be back!

What a beautiful place to stay.. The view is just amazing..Raffaele was the perfect host, went out of his way to pick us up and drop us back at the station. The apartment was spacious and everything that you needed for a stay. We were helped out also by Raffaele with some places to eat and places to get groceries.. a 10 minute walk down to the beach , which is great for a days sunbathing.. also only about 12/15 minutes walk to the small ferry port. Perfect for Positano, Amalfi. Cetara and minori. Would recommend this place to all of our friends it was the perfect place to finish off our trip to Italy.
